'Demand' feeding an older baby??

[Matryoshka]

I wish i could say it gets easier Lee, but for me its gotten harder. FOr the past month or so DS has gone off food (is already very fussy) and only wants to bf - constantly. I think a lot of it is seeing if he can have it and comfort. He'll usually have 2 sucks and walk off. Its really frustrating and the constant re-attaching is painful - he too goes on with his teeth now.

When it gets too much - for instance we just had an hour and a half of him on and off constantly, i just have to say 'boobs are sore now, we need a break'..... Barb once said gentle discipline starts at the breast and i've kept that in mind ever since. He's not happy about it but he seems to understand - distraction method is my friend at the moment.

HA HA HA, I'm already getting from EVERYONE, how it's time to wean Zyon, he feeds still 4-6 times a day...
I let him decide when he's thirsty...

Wow you girls are fantastic! i am going to aspire to be like you guys! Feeding to 2yrs that's great! I only pray DS will feed for that long!

Ds will have a quick snack whenever he can! like we bath together every night and if i dont keep him occupied he will mosey on up and hop on and giggle away! Or if we are out he will just grab at my top and nuzzle right in! Dh thinks its hilarious!

I must admit it does get about tiring! But i love it!
